My Birthday Girl...

Monkey has had a rough week. She hasn't felt well most of it, and has been pretty grumpy. We've been getting some work done in the house, and that hasn't helped any. It will really be worth it in the end though. I will post pics when we are done :)

Yesterday was her 7th birthday. I can't believe my baby girl is 7! She has grown up way too fast. But with her age comes so many new things we can do together. She loves to help me cook, and is such a little nurterer. She wants to help with everything and everyone, sometimes too much ;) We went to eat at Joe's Crab Shack with the neighbor kids for her bday dinner. She loves crab legs, and so does midget. The neighbor girl had never had any, i have to say sorry to her parents, she loves them too... We went to get baskin robbins for dessert, so she was thrilled! On her bday day, she loved her presents. The best being a little bistro table and tea set. She adores it, and it's wrought iron and wood, so someday she can pass that on to her own kids. I can even sit in teh chairs, and we've had tea parties already :) She had a bday party to go to for a friend from her class last year. We gave the day to her friend, so that we could have all teh firends come, and not have to divide the group. So our party is next weekend. This group of girls go to all of each others parties. Her friends bday was friday, so her party was at an art place, and lots of fun. Then we had a neighbors graduation party last night. long day, but fun!

So we have been working to get ready for midget's bday party. She is so excited! These are the invites, how cute are they? On the back it has all her party info, and another pic of her in the star shape. She is so proud of them, and is wearing hers around the house all the time! She's got her big flufy pettiskirt that is black and hot pink, and is ready to sing her little heart out ith all her friends. I'm just worried we will run out of room! Her daddy's best friend is going to bethe boncer at the door, and we are even going to have hot pink carpet to walk up on the sidewalk. I love bday parties :) Karaoke, cool music, disco balls = happy bday girl :)

Her brother is all set to help out too, cause you know he is extra cool, and knows all the good music and has promised to hook her up. Whatever that means to a 10 yr old, talking to a 6 yr old. I am afraid the hanna montana is going to be an issue, and he might be beaten by the girls.... could be funny to see. It could also end tragically...

Sheldon the super cat is doing well, and is loved by us all. He's finacky and moody, but lovable too. He tolerates carriage rides to the best of his ability. He likes the purple cheetah mama cape midget puts on him for some reason...

we are all feeling better here, minus midgets nose. it is just gross...she's wiped it so much she has a nasty sore under it. Out today i felt like i needed to tell people she isn't always like that :)

We had a fun day visiting with family and friends and accomplished alot. Monkey picked out her bday present, and he did so good. He's so sweet to her, and they love each other, sometimes :)

The cat picture is him sleeping at 730, after waking me up at 5. he goes back to sleep and i can't....

sunday blah's

We've been in the house for 2 days now.... monkey and i have headache's, and the midget has a bad cold. Got to love back to school.... they should just call it back to the germs. People are getting edgy in here. Hopefully we will all be well enough tomorrow for some family fun time :)
What a week...

ugh...

This wacky weather is killing us all here. Midget's nose is running at night, but not the day thank goodness. Midget's got a headache, i've got a headache off and on for a couple days now. It's not making for a very chipper house. Thank goodness we have a holiday monday.
We're going to hang out with some family, should be fun. A nice break from the new school year. The kids are doing great.
Monkey has been doing great in his new gt classes. Not sure how gt they really are, but he is doing great. He loves his new teacher. He still wants to go back to kuwait. His new realization for that is that he wants to go to M.I.T. He has heard it's hard to get into and thinks that the schools over there would be more impressive. m Which is true i suppose, being trilingual wouldn't hurt either. Just saying dear.... :)
Midget wants to go back to see her one true love, mushari. She is going to have 3 daughters with him. A set of twins, and one more. They are going on the disney cruise also when they grow up and have this lovely family. I'm afraid the poor boy has no idea :)

T.G.I.F.

We survived the first week of school. I found out the principal at monkey's school is the top principal in the district. After seeing her around the school i see why. She is absolutely fabulous! So energetic and friendly, but she has a look. You can tell if you cross her, that's it. I like her! He has a locker, so they got to decorate and he wanted a pic to take of sheldon. So funny! So up there is what he picked.

Yes, John i know. You don't like cats. But they are amazingly self sufficient :) So you can't have him for lunch.
Shame on you..... :)

Midget had a great first week, although long. She likes her new teacher, and her classmates. She misses her old ones, but has a few good ones in there. We are getting her party all planned out. She is so excited, and she will be quite the star at it. I will post the pics soon....

Now i am deciding whether to muster the energy to go to the new movie shorts, or wait until tomorrow. I am leaning to tomorrow... so T.G.I.F.!!!!

First day of school

Today all the kids went back to school. I was so not ready for my little man to go to middle school. Oddly enough, the boys all looked the same but the girls were so much bigger! I guess they are at the age they are growing quicker than the boys. Scary.... He was glad to see a friend in his class, and was excited to go and see what all middle school is about. His teacher seems really neat. The principal was amazingly nice! I don't want to see her though ;)

Midget was all geared up for 1st grade, and has some girls she knows in there. Her teacher is really nice also. She even sent a postcard saying she's glad ot have her in her class. Alot of teachers seem to do that, nice i think. I was glad to see her so excited to go back. Shei s reading so well, so i know she's going to love 1st grade. She was super cool in her monkey look alike vans. He is always wearing is vans, so she found some that are purple with blue and green hearts. She is super cool in them, and drove her brother crazy saying"see they are like yours!". He played it off though. He even gave her a hug and kiss goodbye at school. I love those two :)
